    The Vietnam Wall has been on line since 1997.

    In 1997 the web site named The Virtual Wall at http://www.VirtualWall.org
    was opened by a small group of Vietnam veterans and relatives of Vietnam War casualties.

    The Virtual Wall has thousands of personal tributes to the fallen in the form of letters, photographs, and citations.

    In 2001 The Virtual Wall partnered to take high-resolution photographs of the Wall, which can be browsed and zoomed at
    http://www.ViewTheWall.com

    Clicking on a name displays the database information for that person.

    The Virtual Wall has operated for more than 11 years without accepting donations, fees, or advertising in order to honor the fallen.

    Jim, thanks for the comment. I found the site referenced in the post by browsing the Washington Times website. I didn’t realize there was already an interactive wall online. Thanks for the feedback.
